This is absolutely stunning on my pale, neutral-toned skin (MAC NC 10, for reference). Both sides are incredibly pigmented, so a little goes a very long way, but I can also build these up if I want to look a bit more flushed in the cheeks. I also really like that I can wear the matte, shimmer, or both sides together. I've had no issues with either side fading on my cheeks throughout the day. It's an expensive investment, but I need so little at a time that it was worth it for me. If you're very pale and you aren't sure about peachy blushes, give this one a try. It's peachy and beautiful without being super warm and bright.

Good Sport is such a good color story and formula! The shimmery/metallic shades do have some fallout, but once I set my face with setting spray, I don't have much of a problem throughout the day except for "Rookie". And I'm willing to make an exception for it because it's so pretty, and I can brush the little sparkles around on my cheeks to make it look like a bit of highlight. Ebb is a stunning green metallic shade that looks good on its own, as a liner, or with other colors. The mattes are all very pigmented and buildable at the same time with the exception of Flow, which is the eggplant purple in my version of the palette. It still works, but I find it needs a bit more finessing. You won't find a much better yellow than Trooper. One of my favorite things about this palette is how easy it is to get a quick I-need-to-get-ready-for-work-NOW look with just a lid shade and a lower lash line shade, because all of the colors look good with one another. I could literally choose two shades, bingo style, and just use one on my lid/crease and one on my lower lash line and call it good. On the other hand, I can also go ham and use several shadows to glam it up. This continues to reign as my favorite ColourPop palette and one of the most often used palettes in my fairly extensive collection. I would absolutely repurchase this or buy the corresponding singles to rebuild it if I panned more than a couple of shades or lost it. This palette proves that ColourPop is capable of some truly stunning, interesting, unexpected but cohesive color stories.

If you think you want to get into color but you're afraid of those huge pans from Sugarpill, try this! It's not the same formula as the single pans. It's better. Fun Size is one of the most versatile palettes I own. Rainbows? Sunset? Sunrise? Ice Cream Space Alien? Use one color as an accent shade to an otherwise neutral look? This baby can do all of those because the formula is pigmented and blendable and plays well with others. All of these do best when packed on with a smaller brush and then blended out with a fluffy brush afterward.
